The last few election cycles in Georgia House District 19 in East Paulding County have seen the incumbent go unchallenged. However, the 2016 race for House District 19 is shaping up to be THE election to watch. Local Paulding resident Matt Lowe has entered the race with a solid platform comprised primarily of lowering taxes and restoring personal freedom. Mr Lowe reminds us that the incumbent preaches a similar platform; however, she has repeatedly voted for increased taxation and burdensome regulation. Lowe feels that he accurately represents the demographic on whom the tax burden falls the heaviest. The Lowe campaign believes it is time for a strong leader in Paulding County who will serve with passion and conviction for Republican values, not merely pay lip service to them while voting in favor of tax and spend legislation.
Matt Lowe is extremely approachable. While he will be the first to tell you he is not a 'go along to get along' type of man, Lowe has never been known to ‘duck and run’ and is willing to discuss issues, unlike others who only show up as elections approach. Matt Lowe stands solid on his principles, and for this quality alone, he has garnered much support in his bid to serve Paulding County. Lowe is a passionate advocate of personal liberty and absolute government transparency.
